Vesontio

Now Besançon; the chief town of the Sequani in Gallia Belgica, situated on the river Dubis (Doubs), which flowed around the town, with the exception of a space of 600 feet, on which stood a mountain, forming the citadel of the town. The place still has remains of a Roman aqueduct, an amphitheatre, and some other less important ruins.
